    Ep. 38 You’re Not Underqualified; You’re Underconfident with Angela Lewis

    Confidence is not something you’re born with. And it’s definitely not about being the loudest voice in the room. In this episode of CLARATY in Action, Clara Capano is joined by Angela Lewis for a powerful, honest conversation about how confidence is built, strengthened, and leveraged—especially in leadership. If you’re a high-performing leader, executive, HR professional, or business owner who looks confident on the outside but still second-guesses decisions, avoids hard conversations, or hesitates to take bold action, this episode is for you. Together, Clara and Angela break down: Why confidence is a learned skill, not a personality traitHow confidence directly impacts decision-making, communication, and presenceThe subtle ways lack of confidence shows up in leadership (even for experienced professionals)Why confidence is foundational to strong culture, trust, and influencePractical ways leaders can build internal confidence that lasts, not situational or borrowed confidenceThis conversation goes beyond motivation. It’s about self-leadership, clarity, and owning your role without waiting for permission or external validation. Because here’s the truth: When leaders build confidence, they lead better. They communicate more clearly. They make stronger decisions. And they create teams that trust, follow, and perform. If you’re ready to stop playing small, stop over-preparing, and start leading with conviction—this episode will challenge you to rethink what confidence really is and how to strengthen it. 🎙️ About Claraty in Action Welcome to Claraty in Action—the podcast that cuts through the noise to bring you clear, confident, and actionable strategies for life and business.
